- Hey my lovelies, in this video we are comparing 3 different casting materials. Jesmonite, Plaster and cement. 2023 BRAND NEW PIGMENTS LINKED BELOW
My main reason for doing this is because Jesmonite is not easily available in the USA. I wanted to look at alternatives.

Jesmonite is a pain to get into the US, extremely expensive. I currently use perfect cast (slightly stronger than regular gypsum plaster). Perfect Cast takes pigments well, but I still prefer jesmonite. And I like cement for pots that don't need color.
Heyyyyy thank you so much this is a great tip for anyone in the USA looking.. xx I will pin your post ❤❤
I really wish it was easily available there x but cheaper
How strong is perfect cast? I know jesmonite is the strongest followed by cement and weakest plaster. Can u please tell where Perfect cast would go in this range?
Can jamonite n plaster withstands high heat?
@@luxisland4547 jeamonite is heat resistant yes ... but not utterly FIREPROOF .... AC730 is non combustible... I do not know about Plaster.
Aqua resin= jesmonite
Here is something you might want to try. You can make plaster very strong and durable enough to last outside for ever, and strong enough to through 20 ft up in the air without breaking. When you mix it with water, add concrete acrylic fortifier, the more you add, the longer it takes to have chemical reaction to set up and flows better, and stronger it is.
Heyyyy Ronald .. thank you so much I didnt know this :)
Just wondering, is that the best combination to use? Is this acrylic fortifier something you can add to cement? I've made some out of normal cement, only 1 out of 3 survived without breaking when I took them out of the mold and worried that the last one will break easily if handled to roughly.
@@saharriazati9927 Yes, thats what it is actually for, cement, you buy it by the cement in a quart or gallom, a quart is about 10 bucks and i use 1 quart for 5 bags of cement for stuff, you might want to use 1 quart for 3 bags for a much harder concrete. It will kinda have a temporary purplish color at first, but changes when hardens. takes a while longer to harden, but when it does, you almost can't break it. Called Concrete Acrylif Fortifier with the Quickcrete brand, some of the other brands call it something similar,
Acrylic lol
@@ronaldrichman8032 thank you so much Ronald for taking the time to answer Sahar ... I just do not have the knowledge on this at all ❤❤
I mix cement and plaster of paris together. It makes the vessel take color much better. Thanks for the video.
@arlenedevroy1110 do you mix it at a 50/50 ratio?
Thank you, Claire! I really appreciate the time that you've put into this video. 🙏🏽
Thank you for the video, It was very useful
This was a great help I’ve been testing for days now and this really just took away the stress completely 😩
Absolutely stunning. Thank you so much for sharing your craft

Thanks so much 😊 so glad you enjoyed it xxx
A great experiment that provides many options, it’s always nice to have a play and see the alternatives end result.....many thanks Claire ❤️💋
thanks so much Ruth xxx really glad you found it helpful xx
Hey, I just got interested in trying to work with molds like these and I'm so happy you made this vid. I'm not sure if I can or will start with jesmonite, so it would be great to test it out with other plasters and know the difference! Thanks a load, saving this for reference and youve got a new follower!
Your videos are so great. Such relevant content. Thanks so much!!!
Heyyy Melissa, thank you so much :) xxx
Loved this videa Claire great to see comparisons TFS Much love Annie xxx

@@ClairesCraftyCorner 🥰
Thank you so much for making this 😭 I’m in the craft store contemplating getting cast powder and this was perfect 🫶🏾
THANK YOU for doing this for USA! You are AWESOME!
thank you so much x really glad you found it helpful x
Very interesting demo well done Claire seems that they are very beautiful.
thanks so much x really glad you like them x
Hey Claire.. absolutely informative and thanks for the initiatives for alternatives introduction...in India jesmonite is super rare and expensive..ll work with rest two ..tks once again and grt wrk ..keep going ❤️
I’m so excited to watch this. Looking forward to seeing if you use sand with your cement and the type of cement that you prefer to use... so so excited
Amazing xxx thank you so much xx ❤❤❤
Love the experiment. I was surprised at the concrete. Well done💕
thanks so much lovely xxxx really glad you enjoyed it
Thank you soooo much for this comparison 🙏🏼😄
Heyyyy lovely ... I am so happy you found it helpful ❤❤❤
I love them all actually, really love the muted tones. Very very pretty. That mould is actually stunning. Love this little experiment and great for people looking to decide what materials to use. Great job lady!!
Thank you so much girl xxx they have Jesmonite in Australia so if ya ever fancied a go ha ha :) xxx
Oooh a 2 week holiday would be wonderful! I have a long weekend craft retreat this week! And yep that's why I'm not playing with it dangit! I'd have been doing it ages ago if we could get it! I'm not a fan of working with cement, concrete or plaster of Paris but you made all of this look gorgeous!
heyyy wow that sounds amazing !!! I would love to do something like that ! xxx
Thank you so much for this testing. I just got into resin and jesmonite and didn't know I can't get it here in the US. I got some DAP plaster of Paris. The measurements helped alot. Now I can make my trays. I wanna make terrazzo chips too. Thanks SOOOOO much!!!
Heyyyyy lovely .. so glad you found this helpful x I felt so bad when I found out it isnt readily available there x
this was the video I didn't know I needed! cause I recently realized how hard it was as well and wondered a lot about using plaster or cement but was too scared to try it out myself in case it just ended up a mess! Thank you
Thank you so much Sara xx so glad you found it helpful xxx
Just what I needed!!! Thank you so much ❤ you earned a follow 🤗
Stephanie thankyou so much ❤❤ so glad you enjoyed it xxx and yay thanks for the follow xxx
Thank you for doing this video because I was curious about how those molds worked out.
Thanks so much for watching xx ❤
Love love love your video! It was so helpful, I was having trouble finding Jesmonite in my country "Malaysia"!
Heyyyy lovely ... there is a company in Singapore called Casting.Co... they ship to Malaysia I think ? Might be worth checking them out ❤❤❤❤
Fantastic video thank you, I'm in Antigua so cement will probably be easier to get
Hey Claire thank you so much for all of your video, it really inspired me to start of my own small business here in Malaysia during this pandemic, im working as paramedic so i found this “art” let the stress out of me and make me calm. Not thinking about the depress situation in the Hospital. Sadly in Malaysia is very hard to get a jesmonite. I used white cement as alternative. Hopefully i can started to take order soon. Currently doing my r&d at the moment.
Heyyyyy lovely thank you so much xxx Wow you do an amazing job ! I cannot imagine how stressful it must be right now xxx Amazing that you have started a small business I hope it goes well x I think there is a Jesmonite supplier in Singapore and Malaysia .. maybe they are low stock right now ? xx
Really interesting topic
Oh nice! We can use different mixtures. They really turned out cool 💖💖💖👏👏👏
thanks Janice so glad you like them xx
Awesome thanks, in South Africa we have Jesmonite or mostly Material One. Also known as M1. It's the same😁
Thank you for making this video. I live in the US and was so bummed out that Jesmonite is not sold here. These will be great alternatives to try (:
heyyy Yazmin thanks so much x ahhh yeh I was also bummed to learn it wasnt ... you guys do have Aqua Resin xxx
Think you for your super helpful videos lovely!! Much appreciated!💗
Thankyou so much lovely xx ❤
Hello, a little bit late comment but there is white cement available too if you want to preserve the color! Thanks for cleaning up the differences I started with cement that is cheap and that I'm familiar with from other DIY projects and then I realized most crafters prefer jesmonite.
Probably I will try the plaster too if I make anything to sell, to keep the weight down to avoid extra shipping cost.
Thank you for the informative video Claire, you always make them fun & educational! 😀 💞🙏👍 I thought "No wonder I never heard of Jesmonite!" 😊 I live in Texas. I have used Ultracal 30 gypsum to make my stone molds & tealight candle holders - however I would LOVE to be able to incorporate colors like yours & not have to basecoat! 😃💞👍
heyyy Pam ... oh that does sound similar xxx
What a wonderful teacher
Thanks for showing the comparison.
Love all the way from India
🤗😍
Heyyyyy Harpreet thank you so much ❤❤ that means a lot xxx and heyyyyy to India ❤❤❤❤
Big thanks from Kampala-Uganda 🇺🇬
Looks great
Heyyy lovely, thank you so much xx
This is an interesting and useful experiment. Thank you!
Thankyou so much xx I am glad you found it helpful xx
So helpful for us USA folks! I ordered aqua resin a few days ago and am hoping it is a good alternative. Fingers crossed!
ohhhh I have heard it is very similar xxx check out Virginia O Studios ... she uses it on instagram and tik tok xxx
Hi Claire, I made the same mould with cement yesterday, and I sealed it with Jesmonite sealer, it turned out Beautiful , thank you x 😊
Heyyyy Annamarie ... oooo that is great news ! thanks for letting me know xx
This is the best diy video I’ve ever seen. Ur awesome
wow thank you so much xx
Very knowledgeable thank you for making great video very helpful
Thanks so much Megha ... so glad you found it helpful xx
Reminder set! 😍
amazing xx see you there x
This video is awesome and very useful. I subscribed now!💖
Thanks so much Billy thats amazing x hope you like my content 😁
Thanks for this video. It gave me great insight. Wish jesmonite was easy to get a hand on in the USA, but I'm going to play around with concrete as an alternative to epoxy resin.
Heyyy Mel ... I wish it was available in the USA too ... I had no idea when I started this x you guys have something called Aqua Resin x
Never heard of it. No wonder 😆. Thanks for the vid!
thanks Dyscea
Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching lovely xx
Clair I’m loving your channel. Only just found you and so happy I have. Really excited about this jesmonite. Having only my bedroom to work in I’ve never works with resin because of the fumes etc. So this looks prefect for me. Plus wow something available here and not in the US it’s normal the other way round. You go looking for something you see a CZcamsr using to find it’s not here and your paying more than the product in postage
Heyyy Rebecca, thank you so much I am so glad you found me also :) I know right ? It really is usually us in the UK that can't get the goodies and this is definitely strange for it to be the other way around x
Great video! Thank you!
Thank you so much Cynthia xxx
Fantastic comparison video, Claire. We are looking into shipping Jesmonite to the US in a way that's affordable for our customers. We'll keep you posted!
Thanks so much I am glad you enjoyed it ... ah that will be amazing for the USA.
Yes, please!!!
Please do!
Hi Polysil! Are there any updates on shipping Jesmonite to the US?? Many thanks!
@@camiwalmsley7084 I'm afraid there are currently no plans to ship to the US.
Those would be beautiful candle holders.
they can be used as candle holders yes x I am hoping to do a video soon .. I have everything I just have not yet made them x
Super cool video, thank you so much! Moved from South Africa where I had this all figured out and now have to do it all over again in the Netherlands. Wish there was a good alternative here for the Quickset cement...but I can't find one though. Ordered the Jesmonite so very excited to try it out 🙂 The code on Hemway didn't want to work though?
thnanks...
Claire, thank you for the video very interesting. Would be great if you add a white cement try and a drop test? (If that is not ask too much). Just to see how well these materials behave! Would be great for me at least. 🤗
heyyy lovely ... I can tell you that they would all break if dropped ... Jesmonite is the strongest .. Plaster is the weakest .. but Jesmonite is not entirely shatterproof xx
What is their durability? That wasn’t covered in the video which was very helpful 👍
Hi Claire, really interesting video, thank you! How are these holding up? Are they durable or prone to breaking/cracking? Thanks
Hi, which materials would be best if you were to make containers for candles?
Thank you
I use Gypsunite from Kote products, it is amazingly tough and waterproof. Also extremely well priced.
Heyyyy Buckle, that sounds great ! I am so glad there are more alternatives xx
Gorgeous colors! This video is so helpful, I just want to start making it with white cement, hoping it'll go well
heyyy lovely .. thank you so much xx I would love to try white cement .. I am not sure I can get it here x
Where can i find these molds? They're beautiful
Wow they are gorgeous 🥰 I think I'll need to get some of that pigment powder 😁. One of my daughters ordered me a 25kg bag of white cement from amazon for my birthday. Didn't receive it though DPD said it got lost somewhere along the way. Not like its a small parcel you couldn't miss it 🤷♀️ lol.
ohhhh no .. how frustrating !! I would love to try white cement :) Happy Birthday !
Helpful video thank you very much.
Heyyy Maryam thank you xx
You need a vibration plate to get rid of air bubbles. Great video!
Thank you so much I will get one one day x
Hello thanks for sharing. Really informative . I'm looking into jasmonite. Wondering how can u avoid air bubbles for jasmonite
Hey lovely .. lots of tapping and shaking .. also a vibration plate might help xx I dont have one x
Thank you for this video! Could you please do a tutorial using the different types of aqua resin for US watchers! I looked into aqua resin but there seem to be different types and not sure where to start. Thank you so much! Love your contents always :)
Heyyyy Sally .. sadly we are in the same boat ... we do not have Aqua Resin here ... but.. Please do check out Virginia O studios ... She is on Instagram and Tik Tok .. she has used Aqua Resin here in the Uk .. they sent her some and she is offering information on it x
Hi Claire, honestly they are stunning, I'm so excited, I've ordered my cement, it come tomorrow 😊 thought I would try this before I try Jesmonite, was the green pigment included in the overall weight of the cement? 😊
thank you so much lovely xx I usually take out some of the powder and add the same amount of Mica back in
Thanks for this video.I wanna know about the texture,feeling of each finished material .
hey KJ .. they all feel smooth like marble x
hello Claire.
Great video.
did you did you take them out of the mould the next day?
I'm trying the cement one and one I take it out the mould it keeps on breaking .
thinking I might have to leave it in the mould longer?
thanks
Hi, is it safe to make jesmonite cups to fill with candles that we can light?
Thank you.
Thank u SOOOO MUCH!🤍🤍🤍
You’re welcome 😊 xx
I would definitely deal all 3 for longevity. You choice on that. Myself I do mod podge.
ahhh thank you so much ! that is s great tip !
I am from morocco thank u for ur video
I actually couldn't find jesmonite in my country so this video is helpful
Thank you .
thank you so much x sorry if you cannot find it .. I am not sure which is your closest distributor x
Thanks for sharing, I wonder if the plaster of Paris is brittle and delicate without some sort of seal
Heyyy Candi ... Yes I believe the plaster is way more brittle than the other two several people have shared this with me in the comments x
Thank you so much for this awesome video. I had been wondering if plaster was comparable to jesmonite, and then I saw this. Of course I had to get some plaster right away. Just tried it in my silicone jewelry dish mold and I love it. I think I’m hooked...going to try cement next. Thanks again for the inspiration ❤️
Heyyyy Pam ... I am so glad you enjoyed it and tried it out ... a lot of comments under this video do say that plaster is not as strong or durable... but it still works xx ❤❤
@@ClairesCraftyCorner I’ve read that adding elmers glue makes it stronger. Gonna research that. I just tried layering it with resin like you did with the jesmonite...hope it works. Haven’t demolded yet😁
@Pam Longwell how did it work? Did you try it both ways, like Claire did, plaster to resin and then resin to plaster? If you recall, Claire found adding jesmonite to resin did not work for her. That's why she's doing the Jesmonite first in her molds.
Great idea to compare these - thanks for the info! Is there also a significant difference or similarity between each material’s durability? Are the plaster of Paris and cement easier to chip with regular wear and tear?
heyyy lovely thank you so much ... I have been told that Jesmonite is the strongest out of the 3 ... and Plaster is the weakest x
@@ClairesCraftyCorner can we make plaster little bit stronger ? Coz in my country jesmonite is not available so that's why I'm searching for better alternative & Thankyou for this comparison video 😊
So cool
thank you so much xx
Love these. Great video 👍. I would imagine that the only waterproof one is the cement. But I would also imagine that you could coat the other two with something to make them waterproof? Just wondering 😁👍
Thanks girl x Yehh ... I still think the cement would be sealing if getting wet regularly ... none of these will need sealing if they are being used as trinket pots .... but plant pots yes xx ❤❤
I haven't even started watching it yet but thank you for this because I cannot find job night and I really like it and I'm hoping that I have will be somewhat comfortable.
Not Job Night😬
Hope you found it helpful xx thank you xx
They both look awesome. I would definitely use cement. That one is nice. I’m reacting terribly to resin even though I wear protection from head to toe so I might have to change my craft. I will still draw inspiration from all of you talented artist. I’m also terrible with measuring and figuring out ratios. If you could send me the amounts for cement I would appreciate it.
heyyyy lovely ... oh that is shame i think its only a matter of time before we all react to resin .. even with protection xxx what amounts do you need ?
@@ClairesCraftyCorner could you give me the amounts you use for your pots. I bought one from you, so I want to make some. I’m intrigued by cement. I also have to use up my resin I’m reacting to. Do you know how much those pots take in regular resin?
@@Sweetencourager21 ohhhh i see ... sorry I understand now ... i haven't used resin in them yet ... sorry ... but if you fill the mould with water and weigh the water .... that will tell you how much you need ❤❤❤
Thanks for that Claire, I love the green cement. I missed the live but I wonder, did you do a cost comparison with these 3 products?
heyyy lovely ... I didnt do a cost comparison .. mainly because cement and plaster will be different around the world .. but thinking about it I would say Jesmonite is probably the cheapest KG V'S KG
@@ClairesCraftyCorner Cool. Thanks Claire.
Jesmonites aren’t available in my country too, Malaysia. Like... even online I couldn’t find any jesmonite seller. Thank you for this video!
Sorry to hear that .. there is a stockist in Singapore I believe ...they ship to Malaysia xxx
I’m going to try out Aqua Resin. It looks like the same type of product, and it’s sold in the US. They have starter kits that aren’t too pricey.
heyyy Beckie that is great yes .. Aqua Resin is pretty much the same thing xx
Awesome,very nice❤️😃..
thank you so much x
I mix plaster of paris and cement, it takes the color much better that way.
Thanks for this video Claire xo. Just for those who may wish to experiment, when looking up Jesmonite Safety Data Sheets, the powder component is listed as Plaster of Paris, and the liquid component as some sort of acrylic compound. I'm sure someone could come up with something extremely similar. Happy experimenting (I hope this helps someone).
I read that too. That jesmonite is basically plaster of paris and acrylic resin. I wanna try it but it’s more expensive than just mixing the plaster with water. I wanna know if they look different after sanding
@@IsaacMaganaMusic For what Jesmonite is, I too think it is way too expensive. I would imagine Jesmonite and simple plaster of Paris would look reasonably alike. Back in the day (a long time ago at art school) I made a few sculptures from plaster of Paris, which sanded down to a lovely smooth finish, however, I found them to be a bit brittle (plus plaster naturally absorbs water). I'm thinking that the acrylic may solve the brittleness problem to a certain degree, and maybe also the water absorption. It's probably something I'll experiment with a bit some time in the future. I have plaster of Paris (pretty old though, but still in powder form), so I only need to research the acrylic side of things and play around. I have read, somewhere on the net, that glue can be added to strengthen plaster also. It didn't specify which type of glue, but I guess some more research may answer that question.
@@belahouison4328 yes, I have tried the glue method. You basically mix white glue or concrete glue to the water and the add the plaster. But be careful tho, plaster goes bad after 3 to 6 months if you store it
@@IsaacMaganaMusic Thanks Isaac. My plaster will be off then - it's over 20 years old!!!! I'll probably still have a little play with it anyway (just in case). It has been stored in well sealed plastic bags, in a plastic bucket with (oddly enough) 2 lids. Found it in my craft supply hoard a few months back. If nothing else, I could use it for adding texture to whatever.
heyyyy lovely .. yes I did not kknow this at all but someone else in the comment section actually gave the name of the additive that makes plaster stronger .. i will have to go find it x
Great video!👏🏻👏🏻
I have a Question tho. If using the plaster of Paris vessel as a candle jar, would it need a sealer? If yes, which one?
Wow they are stunning, i love this mold
Very informative video you have helped me so so much now where do i find it, who sends to Australia?
Thanks Sharon xx definitely check out Amazon or Ali Express xx
